Characterizing rigid simplicial actions on trees

Abstract

We extend Forester's rigidity theorem so as to give a complete characterization of rigid group actions on trees (an action is rigid if it is the only reduced action in its deformation space, in particular it is invariant under automorphisms preserving the set of elliptic subgroups).
